Check out my best bet for Cody Durden vs. Nyamjargal Tumendemberel on the UFC 326 Prelims.

Under 2.5 Rounds (-140)

Durden has been in the UFC since 2020 and has had a tough time recently. He has suffered three consecutive losses and is 1-5 in his last six fights. Meanwhile, his opponent, Tumendemberel, is 9-1 with eight finishes. Tumendemberel’s first UFC fight came against Carlos Hernandez in November 2024, but he lost via split decision. Since he picked up a. victory against Terrance Saeteurn on episode 6 of the Road to UFC.

Tumendemberel is a -192 favorite while Durden is a +160 underdog in this contest on DraftKings Sportsbook. Durden is +300 to win this fight by finish, while Tumendemberel is +120 to score a win by KO/TKO/DQ or submission. Although Durden hasn’t found much success in the UFC, he has still gained valuable experience by facing talented opponents.

Tumendemberel has a four-inch standing reach advantage (71″ vs. 67″) while both fighters are 5’7″. Five of Durden’s last six fights have ended in the first two rounds, while only three of Tumendemberel’s 10 bout have gone to the third round. Tumendemberel will test Durden’s will early in this bout, and it would be surprising if this contest lasted more than 10 minutes.
